Anyone running X King 2.4's on XM719 rims? Any issues?
Mavic recommend a 2.3 tyre max..If i use the protection version that might stop them folding under if thats the problem that i might experience?
These will also be used on my Anthem, pretty sure they will fit..
Cheers
Big tyres for an anthem!
"might stop them folding under if thats the problem that i might experience?"
I think you're main problem would be easy of pinchflatting and rounding of the tyre profile that means you'll need lower tyre pressures to get them to corner properly
This is the problem I find with my 2.25" Maxxis on my XM719's, which I think are slightly smaller than a 'new' 2.2" continental?
XM719s are supposidly over 500g including eyelets (yes mavic clain less but .. ), just wondering how you've ended up with them on an anthem (or is it an anthem X? even so, seems fairly beefily rimmed (if not all that wide)
Got a feeling they won't fit they are huge they measure 60mm across and are high as well. They will leave you sod all clearance in a reba fork and got a feeling they might be too big for the anthem rear too.
Anthem X2 they ended up on there because I bought them and put them on there..I'm not a weight Weiner lol
At nearly 16 stone I need a strong rim..
No Reba fork either, fox f100 to..
I have bobby nic 2.25 but don't like the cornering characteristics, had them wipe out a few times. Still plenty of
room.
I've read that the X king measures 2.3 and seen pics of them being measured at 53mm wide..
